With a Yamaha organ and a vision, South African artist Pops Mohamed embarked on his musical journey in the mid-1970s as the bandleader and composer of Black Disco. He crafted an enthralling blend of chill-out jazz infused with futuristic drum machine sounds and spiritual nuances. His celestial organ melodies were complemented by two of the most esteemed session musicians on the South African scene: saxophone and flute virtuoso Basil Coetzee, renowned since 1974 for his solo on the hit 'Mannenberg,' and Sipho Gumede, the prodigious bassist already making waves among the veterans of the industry. Initially backed by polyphonic beats from Mohamed's electric organ and later incorporating a live drummer, Black Disco forged a distinctive sound, producing a trilogy of pioneering albums in a creative surge between 1975 and 1976. This first full reissue of their debut album, sourced from the original masters, captures the essence of their innovative spirit and showcases their groundbreaking contributions to the musical landscape. This release embodies the group's vibrant creativity and timeless artistry.
